Tagged: border, detention, detention center“President Bush offered a lot of stick and not much carrot in Monday’s speech on illegal immigration.

Bush presented the carrot, for the estimated 11 million people already living and working illegally in the U.S., as of the baby variety to avoid agitating immigration hardliners in his party: register immediately and you can work here for six years, and then return home to apply again.”
